This week on Simple Sketches we welcome a new member to the team! Let's give a big, warm, welcome to Brittany Morgan, who will be a permanent member to this term's team.

Hi there! I'm Brittany and so very excited to be part of the Simple Sketches team! I started scrapbooking about 9 years ago when I wanted to scrapbook my wedding and now there is rarely a day that goes by that I'm not creating something by hand. I love texture and dimension in my crafts, so I tend to lean towards sewing, distressing, and adding mixed media to my projects...especially buttons and twine. I feel that my "style" of scrapbooking is still evolving, but I still enjoy linear, clean and simple pages, so having sketches is a win for me to stretch outside my comfort zone.

I was born and raised a mountain girl in Utah, but now live in Washington with my very supportive husband, three amazing kids, and a crazy Blue Heeler. I work full-time for a non-profit in Seattle, but the rest of my time is spent with my family or crafting. I LOVE spending time outdoors, especially hiking or biking, and I am a coffee, wine, and licorice fanatic.

At Simple Sketches, our creative team does such a great job finding inspiration from the sketches in different ways. I just love when the inspiration comes in to me and I can never wait to share it with you! This week's sketch is no different. We hope that you are able to find much inspiration from this week's reveal.

This week's sketch is guested by Christy Strickler! She did an amazing job!

My name is Christy. I am a wife and stay at home mom. I homeschool my son and spend my free time scrapbooking or playing video games. I also love to take photos. I have a digital camera and a few toy cameras which my son and I built this past summer. I am originally from Florida. We moved to Nassau, Bahamas almost 8 years ago for my husband's job.

I started scrapbooking about 12 years ago. I like using found objects on pages and trying out new techniques. Currently, I am designing for JBS Mercantile, Document Life Workshop and Get It Scrapped. You can see more of my work at
